If I Can't Make You Mine
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Life means nothing when you're not around
Time slips away, it's all over
The world stands still
I say nothing, but I hear a sound
Sounds like an echo
Someone's crying out loud
But I can't make you mine
How can I care about the world out there?
If I can't make you mine
If I can't make you mine
So many people with the shutters down
Days are grey all over
The world stands by
Live pretty pictures that should break my heart
I try to identify
But where do I start?
If I can't make you mine
How can I care about the world out there?
If I can't make you mine
If I can't make you mine
I can't face the future
Or talk about the past (it didn't last)
You were like a mirror
Now all that's left is broken glass.......
If I can't make you mine
How can I care about the world out there?
If I can't make you mine
If I can't make you mine
